Vocation Vacations are career encore samplers

VocationVacations is the only company of its kind. They offer our clients ("vocationers") one- to- three day, hands-on, career immersion experiences under the tutelage of expert mentors. The company's mentors are passionate about what they do (everything from beer brewing to private investigating) and are committed to sharing their knowledge and experience with individuals who dream of walking in their shoes.
Since VocationVacations began in 2004, its mentor pool has grown from an initial group of ten to nearly 250 and continues to grow monthly; VocationVacations currently offers more than 110 vocations in locations all across the United States.
VocationVacations is not an online job posting or placement company. We do not offer a short-term fix for someone looking to start a new job today. Rather, the experiences are a catalyst that helps people begin a long-term, strategic process of transitioning into work that brings meaning and fulfillment to their lives.
Vocationers have ranged in age from 18 to 80; the bulk, however, are GenXers and baby boomers.
"A large percentage of our 'vocationers' are baby boomers," says Brian Kurth, founder and president of VocationVacations. "They come from all types of professions including attorneys, financial services managers, IT developers, insurance executives, teachers, and clerical workers. What they have in common is a lack of passion and meaning in their current work and a powerful drive to find work and a lifestyle they love."
